Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 156 The Weight of Fate

In a daze, Bai Suzhen pulled Yang Jiao to a place densely covered with stars.

There is also a melon skin boat standing not far from them.

As soon as the two landed on the boat, Bai Suzhen signaled Yang Jiao to enter the cabin.

When Yang Jiao stepped into the cabin, he saw a pot of fine wine and several steaming side dishes.

After a while, the two sat facing each other.

"My lord, come." Bai Suzhen first filled a glass of wine for Yang Jiao, then peeled off the lotus pod and handed it to him.

Yang Jiao took the lotus seeds from Bai Suzhen's hand, and his heart started beating uncontrollably again.

After a while, he said slowly:

"Miss Bai, what do you mean by this?"

"A small boat with melon skin, a jug of wine, a few side dishes, and a sky full of stars."

"Could it be that you regard Xu Xian as your former friend?"

Bai Suzhen's eyes flickered slightly, so she sincerely pleaded:
"Young master, you are really too similar to my friend. Since we are friends, can we satisfy my only wish?"

After Yang Jiao took a deep look at Bai Suzhen, he reached out to pick up the jug and poured her a glass of wine.

"Please."

In an instant, Bai Suzhen's brows relaxed and her eyes were smiling.

After half an hour.

The two sat side by side on the bow of the boat, their minds immersed in the starry sky without speaking for a long time.

Suddenly, Bai Suzhen asked:
"My lord, do you still remember the umbrella we shared?"

"Never forgotten."

However, when she heard it, she lowered her head slightly and said softly:

"Never. But I just forgot."

After Yang Jiao heard it sharply, he understood that the umbrella Bai Suzhen mentioned was the umbrella that the two of them had weathered the wind and rain together for more than half a step.

"Miss Bai, it seems that your friend is not only your destiny, but also your disaster."

"You are going through love calamity."

Bai Suzhen was stunned, recalling the past and the current state of mind, only to realize belatedly that ever since she accidentally met the person in front of her.

For thousands of years, her calm and calm, her heart like still water, and her state of being out of things no longer existed.

"Xu Xian hopes that after tonight, Miss Bai, you will no longer be troubled by love, and you will always remain sober and calm enough to be firm in your original purpose."

Yang Jiao said in a deep voice:
"So don't get entangled and hesitant, stick to your heart, act resolutely, decisively and devote yourself to what you want to do."

Bai Suzhen raised her eyes to look at Yang Jiao with a moving expression, and heard him suddenly ask back:
"Do you know why I suddenly woke up and wanted to practice Taoism?"

Bai Suzhen shook her head lightly.

"When I was approaching Qiantang County, I suddenly woke up one day, as if I had been given a slap in the face."

"While in a daze, I walked to the Qiantang River, looked back on my life suddenly, and came to my senses."

"In an instant, there was a letter from the tide on the Qiantang River, and today I know that I am my comprehension."

"So, the heart of seeking immortality and Taoism came into being."

Bai Suzhen thought that Yang Jiao's slap in the face was the ruthless mallet, but she didn't expect that this mallet can not only make people lose their memory, but also has the ability of epiphany.

"Above the Broken Bridge, why did you and Miss Xiaoqing say that you and I have read a few books? It's because when my sister sent me to private school."

"Although he has a diligent heart, he is not a seed of reading after all. After a few years, he has achieved nothing."

Yang Jiao looked up at the stars all over the sky, and said sadly:
"Only when the Qiantang River tide believed, I realized clearly that I was deeply afraid that I was not a beautiful jade, so I didn't dare to study it hard, but half believed that I was a piece of beautiful jade, so I refused to be mediocre and rubble. For the team."

"So I couldn't study well, so I just studied medical books, and I just liked to take care of some nosy things that I couldn't manage. In the end, my brother-in-law arranged to be an apprentice at Baozhitang."

"Son."

Bai Suzhen was shocked by Yang Jiao's sincere voice, and didn't know how to comfort her.

"In this world, thousands of creatures, no matter who they are, either work hard to excel, or are lazy enough to know their destiny."

"What I'm most afraid of is that my knowledge has opened up, but I can't keep up with my efforts, resulting in extremely lofty bones and extremely weak personality."

When Yang Jiao said this, he narrowed his eyes and fixedly stared at Bai Suzhen:

"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, they regard all things as straw dogs, saints are not benevolent, and regard the common people as straw dogs."

"What is a humble dog?" he asked himself and answered:
"A straw offering."

"So, I plan to enter the Tao, and I will no longer live between the heaven and the earth in a daze."

"It's no wonder that it was already late at night, but I still practiced hard." Bai Suzhen had a little understanding.

"I work hard to practice, not to prove how hardworking and excellent I am."

"But when unexpected and uncontrollable factors come, the growing realm of cultivation can become my confidence to resist all wind and rain."

"The reason why sentient beings in the world want to cultivate and set foot on the immortal path is to hold their destiny in their own hands as much as possible."

"Actually, the true meaning of practice lies in two words, choice."

Bai Suzhen looked at Yang Jiao half-understood, and heard him continue:

"The world is never static for a moment, and the sum of individual changes is the change of the whole world."

"But the degree to which personal change affects world change is not the same."

"Some people spend all their time thinking about it, but they can't make any waves."

"Some people turn the world upside down because of a single thought."

"This is the weight of fate."

Yang Jiao said sonorously and forcefully:

"And a weak person has no power to resist in the face of a fate as thick and broad as the sky, and can only wait for the trial without a fight."

"Only by becoming a truly strong man, then when fate whispers to the strong man, you cannot withstand the storm."

"After easily overturning this so-called fate, the strong man can snort and reply in a low voice, I am the storm."

Finally, Yang Jiao asked continuously from the bottom of his heart:
"Miss Bai, these are the reasons for my practice. I hope you can understand what you really want after hearing this."

"After all, it is love that is fleeting."

"It's still the right to choose."

At this time, Bai Suzhen was stunned, as if she was in deep thought, she was first moved by Yang Jiao's self-analysis.

He also felt empathy for the word fate that he said.

As a monster who has been burdened with sins since she was born, because she is not reconciled and does not succumb to her own destiny, she devotes herself to cultivating, being kind to others, and not getting involved in all kinds of right and wrong.

Don't even join forces with the people in the magic way, and absorb the yang energy and soul of mortals to quickly increase the mana of cultivation.

The purpose is that one day, she can achieve a positive result and grasp her fate of being slaughtered and screaming and killing.

Bai Suzhen thought about this, and unconsciously her heart became firmer.

Seeing this, Yang Jiao finally calmed down and relaxed. After a lot of talking, he finally got some results.

In this way, there should not be so many nonsense in the original plot.
